Their new focus on businesses integration is causing a lot of spam to end users from unsolicited business messages. There is no way to escape it. Bought that something from someone a few years back and gave your phone number to them? Thanks

And that makes it okay to make private communication public? Isn't it hypocrisy to argue to for privacy of the living (HN being pro privacy) but not of the dead.

It takes a couple of lines to call any API in Rust using reqwest: https://github.com/seanmonstar/reqwest I'm not sure where this 6 hours for matrix bot thingy comes from. A better comparison would be to write some

Another 'I don't like Rust - I don't use it - but I like writing blog posts about it' article. I wonder if there are more lines written about liking and disliking Rust in the world than actual Rust code at this point.

I doubt that. Try shooting an arrow at a crow (obviously not killing it) or throw a stone at a group of monkeys the next time chance presents it self. Not a good idea. One of my childhood nemesis were a group of crows from a tree nearby at

In Malaysia not in India. In India, laws don't allow killing of even rabis infested dogs forget about monkeys. Not to mention monkeys are considered sacred.

Strength doesn't come into the picture with monkeys. They attack by biting and scratching and often from hidden places like tree tops or rooftops. In many parts of India, the dogs are afraid to even bark at them. That said, adult monke

Yes but then 'enterprise architects' can't put their shiny cloud certifications to use. They need pubsub regardless of the scale because that's what is recommended by big cloud. And of course the companies also don'

Not necessarily. Many languages like Java already have queuing libraries that operate on rdbms through JPA. So not even a single additional line needs to be written for this to work. We got ours working in a day and it works great. I don&#x

There are already several (razorpay, paytm, payu) that do exactly that. They do charge 2% flat fee which is still high by Indian standards (comparing to cash and upi). So merchants do try custom solutions with bank gateways to reduce the fe

There is no exception for recurring payments. Also unfortunately this applies to all online merchants and Payment aggregators regardless of size and certifications. So as it stands a separate auth is needed for each transaction which is com

You are not looking at this from user perspective. It's very much a paper based flow for them. Where it wins is that it lets people forget about digital devices while creating their content while letting them choosing to share some of

> self obsessed You mean like the rest of the people on Instagram? Even if it's not Instagram, that is what most politicians do to stay in power (advertising things done by them and hiding the things detrimental to them)

Any open source options similar to comet chat (but obviously may be with less functionality) ?

Just grasping at straws. Without taking into consideration, the magnitude of co2 getting emitted, we can even blame cavemen with their cook fires for global warming.

I expect the Trump ban to be overturned starting next year. And also Twitter to become lot more neutral. Whatever someone's political beliefs might be, it is bad for business when you alienate good number of users and also result in en

Assuming this is not sarcasm, why not make that extra buck and donate whatever savings you make to what ever cause you see fit. It's odd to trust the government to use your money more prudently than yourself.

If tax breaks are there to be availed, why wouldn't anyone avail them. Does anyone pay more tax than they are legally obligated to ? It doesn't make much sense because the house prices already account for tax breaks, low interest
